birthday boy

i know it's trite to say, but i'm compelled say it anyway!  here it goes:

i can't believe my baby is a 2-year old baby.

and all the other stuff about how fast time has gone, and also how i'm stressed that someday soon he will be 10 and he won't want to cuddle and kiss all day. and a couple minutes after that he'll be 12 and i will be sooooo embarrassing to him. and then one day i'll wake up and he'll be heading off to BYU (of course) and come across one of those son-stealing girls. (J)

but that's a lot for now. let's keep it in perspective here.

for now i'll just scoop up all the time i can with this patient, loving, smart and independent little man. and secretly believe i'm the luckiest mom in the universe.

fantasy come true

one of my LONGEST standing fantasies has just come true (for only the second time in 38 years).  the fantasy runs something along these lines:

"upon finding something broken or not working, just ignore it - or if happening in a vehicle, turn up music really loud -- and eventually it won't be broken anymore."

pretty sweet as far as fantasies go, eh?

so a couple of weeks ago when i kept getting a dialogue box saying that my wireless network couldn't work because SOMEOME ELSE in my neighborhood had a wireless network rendering mine disabled, well...i was pretty perturbed. i mean, clearly, i was here first.

so brian worked on it for 15 - 20 minutes. or 30. whatever. it didn't work for a couple of weeks. until brian got so incredibly desperate to know EVERY SINGLE sports score known to man, and attempted to log on to espn.com.

much hooting and hollering ensued in our house.  magically, dreamily, fantasmically, my fantasy came true. we're all better now.
